Open a link placed inside IFRAME in parent window

Hi,

I am trying to create an app in Experience Builder. In the pop-up window I have embedded html pages with longer texts and small galleries with a few images in it. Each image is also a link that is opening an external gallery.

When clicking on any link in the embedded page, the target pages (i.e. gallery) is opening inside the IFRAME in the pop-up window. I would like to open it in the parent window of the browser. Is there a way to do it in Experience Builder environment?

<a target="_parent" href="blabla/gallery.html"> is not working. Neither is <a target="_top"...>

Do you have any ideas how this can be done?

@MichałBrodowicz Unfortunately, you cannot do that at this time.

The iframe containing the embedded content is sandboxed. Yet, in order to redirect a link from an iframe to the top, the attribute "allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation" need to be added to the sandbox list, which could cause safety issues.
